Giant Siphonophore

Read the story and answer the questions to test your comprehension.

The giant siphonophore is a long chain of specialized parts. One link in the chain digests while another one catches prey. This animal swims by waving up and down, like a jump rope. While the siphonophore is only the width of a broomstick, it can grow to lengths of 130 feet, which is longer than Earth's largest animal - the blue whale.
